Chicago The Eternal City Sci Fi

Nael Supremium has been through it all. He was separated from his mother as a child, lived with a beggar, grew up in a life of crime, trained to become an assassin, and was even groomed to inherit an organization involved in everything from politics and corruption to drug trafficking and more. He had a loving childhood, but after that, it was terror after terror. Perhaps he didn’t want this life, but it was all he had. Sometimes, difficult choices don’t require strong determination; they only demand desperate moments. Well, maybe the only good thing in all of this is that, even in his hardest times, he never lost his sanity. Perhaps his smile, kindness, and innocence—those close to him know deep down he is still good. He just wants someone to understand him. Everyone knows him for avoiding relationships. Maybe love isn’t meant for him; he knows nothing about it. But at least he tried once, though it was anything but a bed of roses. Now, don’t get me wrong. This isn’t a dramatic romance. It’s a fantasy cultivation story with a touch of magic. Forgive me if there are any errors—I’m not fluent in English, and this is my first book. I’ve wanted to write for a long time, but the conditions I’m in haven’t made it easy. I hope you all enjoy it.

Earth, 1957. In a secluded and forgotten corner of the world, a being unlike any other is born — an extraordinary hybrid of bear and human. Hidden from the world, he is raised in secret by a woman who becomes his teacher, his guide, and his only family. From her, he learns the ways of humanity: language, knowledge, and emotions. His mind grows rapidly, far surpassing human intellect, and his strength is unmatched. But peace is fleeting. Their sanctuary is discovered by government forces. In the chaos that follows, he protects the woman, giving her a chance to escape. Overwhelmed by his growing instincts and the violence within him, he makes a choice. Fearing he might one day hurt her, he distances himself from her. He leaves. She disappears into the world of humans, while he is left with only the wilderness as his refuge. Alone and hunted, he vanishes into the depths of nature. Time passes, and with it, he forgets. His mind, once sharp and brilliant, is dulled by instinct. He forgets what it means to be human. One day, fate calls him back. While wandering the forest, he witnesses an attack — a wild bear mauling a man. Something stirs within him. Memories. Instincts. He intervenes. He fights. He kills. The man, paralyzed by fear, watches in disbelief. But then, something impossible happens. The hybrid speaks. His voice, rough and broken, echoes through the forest. The man collapses in shock. But this is only the beginning. Unknown to him, he is not the only one of his kind. The truth of his origins is tied to beings far older than humanity. They created him. They watch him. And they have plans for him. His journey will span centuries, through war, solitude, and discovery, as he faces the ultimate question: Is he man, beast, or something far beyond either? “Echoes from the Eternal” is a raw, powerful tale of evolution, identity, and survival. Through the eyes of the hybrid, readers experience a world both familiar and alien, brutal and profound. His story is one of silence and echoes — echoes that will reverberate across the ages.
